Welcome to Gaia! ::

Reims, Squire of Ganymede

So far, everyone seemed to be okay. Well, there were some crazy wires getting thrown around and something was going on with the Senshi of that place, but he was honestly more concerned about people who bothered to try and get to know him. There weren’t many. He could probably count them on his fingers, but it was enough.

The others were attacking, so of course Reims would as well. He held his hand out behind Dering to catch him in case he stumbled backwards too quickly after trying to knock the Chaos infested cat woman off balance, and then reached to grab Yvoire by the back of his outfit to pull him out of the way of some wires.

Cynthus got a gentle hip check to bump her out of the way of some wires since his hands were full and he didn’t think she’d appreciate being shoved.

“Look out for these others!” Reims barked a warning and made a harsher pull to get Yvoire away from the zone in which everyone else was attacking without consideration for who was trying to get a hit in, first.

He waited until he had enough room to attack and then lunged forward with his sword.

Sessrumnir, Knight of Jupiter

If Sessrumnir had more time, he would have paid more attention to the Senshi and Knights as they fought. They were all fighting admirably and focusing on the Chaos to destroy it. Even those who were young were putting in a great effort, and he appreciated it.

He knew he was often concerned about the well being of others, but he was glad to see them all doing their best.

“You alright?” he was at least able to ask a Squire he hadn’t seen in a while, but was still proud of him for being there and doing his best. He nodded to Belmont, ready to nudge him out of the way of the tiger that was summoned by Ephesus.

But it seemed as though the Squire was able to hold his own. Maybe Sessrumnir had been concerned for nothing.

When he had the opportunity, he followed up Alastor’s attack with a punch of his own.

Antisana, Squire of Pluto

It seemed like they were all back together: everyone that had divided up into groups, and Urania as well. That had to be something of a relief, at least. But it was not exactly a happy reunion. Even if they’d managed to accomplish everything Urania had needed them to with the puzzles and riddles, there was still Chaos here, and a blast of it sent this world’s senshi crashing to the ground, and mayhem erupted as something… other… emerged from the shattered barrier.

Urania knew this girl? This robot? She’d called its name…

But whether the senshi did or did not know this being was irrelevant. It had attacked her with Chaos, sent her flying, knocked her out. And Antisana doubted anyone here knew enough about it to deduce whether or not it could be reasoned with- or even if that was what Urania wanted. Others moved quickly to help her, while the rest had to defend themselves from this… wired-up catgirl thing.

Antisana didn’t have magic that he thought would do much to a robot, and he had no skills that would be of great use to Urania. Buuuut… in terms of sheer bulk, he was hardly a pushover. The girl(?) being the focus of most attacks meant he didn’t want to get in the way of anyone else, but beside him, Crisium had started to whale on a bundle of wires with a stray pipe that he’d picked up from somewhere. Elsewhere, those wires had started to launch attacks as well, against others, so, less wires seemed like as good a plan as any.

He snatched a group up in his hand, wrapped them around his arm and yanked. He didn’t know if ripping them out would do anything. So much of space ran on magic, but what did it hurt to try?

Cynthus, Squire of the Moon

“YOU SUCK!” Cynthus screamed at the Chaos Cat Woman. “NO ONE WANTS YOU HERE! GET ******** dad would probably be horrified. He would sigh and mumble something about how she was too sweet to behave like this and could she please not be so reckless. Cynthus would scoff and roll her eyes and tell him he was overreacting, and anyway what did he expect her to do when she was a superhero?

She felt pretty super right now. Sure, some people were getting tangled up in the wires, but she wasn’t one of them! (Potentially thanks to a hip check from Reims, but Cynthus decided to bump him with her shoulder instead of thanking him for it because, like, she knew what she was doing, okay?)

She swung her crook at the Chaos Cat Woman again. Later, she would think they were kind of badass—her and Yvoire and Dering especially, but Reims and Amarynthos and Ephesus, too, all of them looking for openings and moving around each other like they were in sync with one another.

Maybe they just got lucky. Cynthus chose to believe they were just that good. It wasn’t like she had much proof to the contrary.

When Ephesus summoned his tiger, Cynthus sighed, “Ugh, when do I get a tiger?”

Super Sailor Perdita, Senshi of Plenty

“Stay out of the way of the wires!” Perdita warned Connie and Belmont, aiming another kick at the Chaos figure.

Her heart was racing. Though she would continue to appear calm and collected, Perdita wasn’t a fan of these free-for-all scenarios. There were way too many chances for someone to get hurt. If it wasn’t magic, it was someone’s fist flying a little too close, or a weapon coming out of nowhere.

Or a summon.

Perdita couldn’t say she was too disappointed about the tiger summon. More of those would be helpful. If everyone else could stand back and let the summons get to work…

“I don’t suppose either of you have one of those,” she said to Connie and Belmont.

She couldn’t recall ever seeing a Squire use one. Most of the other knights she knew were proper Knights.

Page Almere

People were getting tangled up in wires now. Oh no. That looked dangerous! Luckily it didn't look like any of her friends had been hit, but, well, that didn't mean that they weren't going to be.

Almere couldn't heal. She didn't have a shield like Halle.

What she had was a spoon, and so she decided that she was going to have to make offense into the best defense.

She gripped the spoon like a sword, and slashed at the wires.

It didn't work nearly as well as just ripping at the wires, it turned out.

Alastor, Eternal Senshi of Despair

There were a lot of others doing their best here, but Alastor still stayed near Sessrumnir and the teenagers. Things didn’t quite feel right. This wasn’t a battle he felt like he could enjoy, it wasn’t like social sparring.

It was Chaos, and a mechanical host, maybe. He didn’t know how things worked on Urania’s world but he was glad to see her in the distance, awake and protected. He suspected that of everyone there, she was the greatest target. If the Chaos overwhelmed her, it overwhelmed her world.

She'd kept it--and herself--alive for too long to lose now.

Alastor, still full of energy and purpose, tried to tear some of the wires loose to prevent the Chaos from using them as a weapon.

Guine

Dering, Squire of Lysithea

Cynthus? Cynthus had that much in her?

If Dering didn’t know her already, he might have been terrified of her. He hoped the robot woman could feel fear. He didn’t have any clever or catchy battle phrases; he wanted to stay as out of the way as possible. It wasn’t that he was afraid of the wires (he was, a little) but of all of his friends, he was probably the most useless.

Which wasn’t him being hard on himself, it was just practical! He needed to learn how to use his magic. For now, he could keep jabbing with his lute (sorry, lute) and hope that it would be distracting enough to keep them all safe from future attacks.

Even with all of the violence and chaos around them, Dering didn’t feel too shaken. He had Reims and Yvoire next to him, and he did his best to be careful and watch their back like they watched his.

Even with a brief distraction–Ephesus had a tiger, after all!–he jabbed his lute at some of the twisting wires, hoping to disrupt them before they could form anything dangerous.
